Dear john,
Over the past three years, it's clear the number one request from the great citizens of Texas’ Fourth Congressional District has been to secure our southern border. And rightfully so; the border under Biden's policies is an unprecedented disaster and an affront to American sovereignty.
I visited our southern border earlier this month, and from what Customs and Border Patrol agents tell me, the Mexican drug cartels, not the U.S. government, control our southern border. Through his policies, Biden has abdicated that responsibility to the cartels for their financial gain.
Take for example the Del Rio sector, which cartels recently flooded with tens of thousands of illegals. Border Patrol was forced to allocate all of their resources to process these illegal migrants, which left the rest of the sector entirely unmanned and unguarded, which was precisely the cartel’s intent. They aim to flood a certain point, which will then leave hundreds of miles unguarded.
Our open border is a signal to the world that if you can make it within our borders, you can stay. Recent reports show that less than five percent of illegals who have crossed our border under Biden have been deported. We don’t even know who these individuals are, which makes this a massive national security threat.
But what will it take to secure our border and end this disaster? If Biden doesn’t want to get serious about advancing policies that secure our border, then why should House Republicans be obliged to fund his government?
This is an existential threat that needed to be addressed, yesterday. Three years have gone by and Biden has left no doubt in any objective mind that, unless his hand is forced, he will not put in place policies to secure the border. In my view it is clear that House Republicans have no choice but to force his hand.
For Texas and Liberty,
